My work focuses on designing practically efficient cryptographic protocols that address the dual concerns of privacy and accountability, with a particular emphasis on blind signature schemes, authentication schemes, zero-knowledge proof systems and threshold cryptosystems.
I am also interested in computational number theory, especially as it concerns to the arithmetic of elliptic curves and its applications to cryptography.
